    Like most recycling it’s not really as great as you might hope or 100% possible.

    Hopefully in time they improve the recycling of alternative power.

      Batteries and solar get used 1000s of times in their lifetime, then over 80% (and growing) are recycled. I haven’t heard of any fossil fuels being recycled and burned a second time yet.

      Every bit of fossil fuel that taken put of the ground and burned ends up in the air. Solar and batteries don’t.
